VALLEJO — Days after the identity of a man shot and killed by six officers had widely been reported in the media, the Vallejo police department confirmed his name.

In a news release Thursday evening, police confirmed that 20-year-old Willie McCoy was shot and killed by six officers at a Taco Bell drive-thru Saturday night. Family members identified McCoy to reporters over the weekend.

Police say McCoy’s identity was confirmed through a fingerprint analysis.

McCoy reportedly fell asleep in the drive-thru of the Taco Bell on the 900 block of Admiral Callaghan Lane in Vallejo at around 10:30 p.m. Saturday. Officers arrived and discovered he had a gun in his lap, according to a police news release.

In a video that contains audio of the shooting — posted to Youtube on Wednesday — police can be heard yelling commands to McCoy and firing at him less than three seconds later. Many shots can be heard.

Police say McCoy died at the scene. The gun in his lap was later discovered to have been reported stolen out of Oregon.

McCoy’s death has prompted national media coverage, and outcry from the local community and activist groups. On Thursday morning, the Northern California branch of the American Civil Liberties Union issued a statement calling for stricter police use of force policies across California, citing McCoy’s killing.

“This is a matter of life and death: California can and must update its deadly use of force laws and provide officers with adequate guidance to successfully resolve situations like the one that resulted in Mr. McCoy’s death without anyone dying,” the ACLU statement says.

The identity of the six officers who shot McCoy remains unclear. A public records request for the names, filed by this newspaper on Sunday, is still pending.

Attorneys for eight drug distributors, pharmacies and retailers facing trial next month for their roles in the opioid crisis want to disqualify the federal judge overseeing their cases, saying he has shown bias in his effort to obtain a multibillion-dollar global settlement.
